anyone know a good C++ IDE?
Visual Studio is too overkill

Code::blocks or Qt

Notepad++

Neovim + gdb

@fuck2code the biggest one is asynchronous functions (a linter doesn't have to freeze all other plugins while linting, for example)

@fuck2code no problem :)

Vim or if you have a proper project structure kind of thing going on, try devC++

I recommend visual studio. Intellisense is a godsend.

VSCODE?

Vim, or if you are less than a mortal vscode and if you are just a weakling clion

CLion of you are a student

@Condor kinda disagree! It's true that so many more C++ devs use VIM, but that doesn't make it any prettier. You can't deny that the productivity is much higher when:

1) you don't have to grep for references instead of just pressing a key

2) auto completion

3) integrated gdb

I appreciate VIM has all of these 3, but sorry, there's no comparison between VIM and VS or Eclipse or CLion!

@Condor Yeah sure it makes sense in these scenarios! But, say, we're coding on a Unix box (please, no C++ developing in Windows, it's just a pain), then I feel better off just using Eclipse!

RE finding references that's exactly what I was talking about: I'm not talking about *text* references, but actual usages, which includes:

- usages inside macros
- read only or write only references (including functions that take non-const ref)

Aaaand it excludes comments! So much more powerful than just text search! Also, it doesn't fiddle around with ctags!

Anyway, I use VIM myself, it's no biggie. But again, if I have to code in a big, convoluted code base, we'll, Eclipse it's the way!

Clion or vim
